best explanation i have heard so far. makes no sense whatsoever that a young qatari diplomat in his twenties would just throw away his political career and future ambitions.

now his answer makes sense too and gives you a good impression why the situation escalated: 'I was trying to set my shoes on fire.'

(dude probably felt victimized or unfairly treated by the sky marshall and made a sarcastic remark that was used against him right away)

:mmmmhmm:

beliggerent pig asshole acted like he thought he was god, young arab diplomat gave him a smartass answer, so the big-show f16s were called out--that'll show those smartas ay-rabs not to make jokes to the airplane gods--

funny how planes off course for an hour on 9/11/01 never saw an f16, like payne stewart the golfer's plane did the year before, until it ran out of gas and crashed...

exactly. it is really beyond my reasoning sometimes how people are not willing to see the obvious lies here just so that they can still use 'islamic terrorism' as a beloved bully and explanation for all of america's actions in two illegitimate wars. if people would invest more time on reading CIA memos and how the US trained & equipped taliban fighters during the cold war or how the famous Al-Qaeda actually came into existence then maybe they would start turning off the television and start revolting against their administration.

just a little example of the bigotry:

World Trade Center attacks

In October 2001, following the World Trade Center attacks, New York mayor Rudy Giuliani turned down a $10 million donation from Saudi Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal for disaster relief. Giuliani interpreted his statements as drawing "a moral equivalency between liberal democracies like the United States, like Israel, and terrorist states and those who condone terrorism."

I will agree with you on one thing, scrambling the F16s has never made much sense to me, what are they gonna do? Shoot down a plane with 183 people on board. Do they think they would scare the person, IF it had been a terrorist? I doubt it.

If a terrorist gains control of the plane and it starts heading toward something....you bet.

He was going to overwhelm the sky marshal and burst through the hardened cockpit door and blind the pilot's with newport smoke and take over the plane after learning to fly with his Wii-box.

WASHINGTON – A Qatari diplomat trying to sneak a smoke in an airplane bathroom sparked a bomb scare Wednesday night on a flight from Washington to Denver, with fighter jets scrambled and law enforcement put on high alert, law enforcement officials said.

No explosives were found on the man. and officials do not believe he was trying to to harm anyone, according to a senior law enforcement officials who spoke on condition of anonymity.

The sources asked not to be identified because they were not authorized to discuss the ongoing investigation.

A law enforcement official said the incident appears to have been a misunderstanding after the man was confronted trying to sneak a smoke in the bathroom.

The official says the man "made a joke about it" — which only alarmed people further.

Re: ***Another Shoe-Bomber Stopped On United Flight To Denver!! A Quatari Diplomat!!***UPDATE: He Was Headed To Meet With Jailed Al-Quaida Agent!!***

A senior State Department official said the agency was aware of the tentative identification of the man as a Qatari diplomat and that there would be "consequences, diplomatic and otherwise" if he had committed a crime.

The latest edition of department's Diplomatic List, a registry of foreign diplomats working in the United States, identifies a man named Mohammed Yaaqob Y.M. Al-Madidi as the third secretary for the Qatari Embassy in Washington. Third secretary is a relatively low-ranking position at any diplomatic post and it was not immediately clear what his responsibilities would have been.

Foreign diplomats in the United States, like American diplomats posted abroad, have broad immunity from prosecution. The official said if the man's identity as a Qatari diplomat was confirmed and if it was found that he may have committed a crime, U.S. authorities would have to decide whether to ask Qatar to waive his diplomatic immunity so he could be charged and tried. Qatar could decline, the official said, and the man would likely be expelled from the United States. [link to www.kdvr.com]

Personally I think all persons from embassy's in Muslim countries should be subjected to a full body search and an MRI before being allowed to get thru security. Wouldn't be a bad idea to give them a powerful laxative to purge out whatever they may have concealed inside, too. Maybe a laxative that would keep them on the toilet for the duration of the flight? "Pity your ambassador died of dehydration en route, sir. We're so very sorry!"

I am so sick of these hate filled MUSLIMS wanting to bomb, kill, destroy the west anyway they can. Too bad Obama will never have the balls to nuke one of their shit countries back into the stone age and keep them there for a 1000 years or so... doing so might just dissuade the rest of them from continuing this shit!
